I’m tired of...

...my opponent surrounding my fullback in the corner of my own third, fouling him, and the ref playing advantage. There is no advantage in that situation. That’s not how the game of football actually works. Just call the foul, give me my free kick, and let’s all move on with our day.

I feel like whining about how bad this game is, so I figured I’d let everyone join in. Tell me what you’re tired of in Fifa 20.

    Seeing my players who have 90+ passing fail to complete simple A passes, then watching my opponent complete 3+ backheel passes with average passers on his way to a goal.

    Watching my players stand directly behind defenders, making it impossible to pass to them. Extra tired of X passing to a fullback on a goal kick and then watching him stand in place, waiting for the ball, as my opponent's player runs in front of him to take it from him. Can you at least ACT like you want to get the ball?

    My opponents players rushing to the ball whilst mine stand there with a finger up their arse.

    I'm tired of having to change my player 4+ times just to get the player I want.

    when my opponent passes to his striker in my box, and, when I press the "change player" button, it switches me to a defender other than the one on the ball.

    Tired of the hidden mechanics always trying to force a goal at 45, 90 etc.

    One sweaty game in WL, the guy had 0 shots +2 min added on, I went to his corner to time waste. He slides from behind and kills my player - no foul. Breaks to my end and eventually gets a corner, 3 corners later we're in 90+7, he scores a deflection. ET beckons.

    Amount of time some BS happens near the end 🤔

    Is standing off frowned upon now? I have stood off for years, why would I go bombing forward and leave gaps when I can let the other team come forward and take the ball?

    Becuase you're 2 down .. so he can just keep the ball forcing you to come.out if you still stand off then you just don't wanna play the game obviously

    when a through ball goes JUST far enough that my opponent gets to it first. Or JUST far enough that the keeper gets their before my striker can get a shot off. You can always tell when the game is forcing the pass away from you.

    Oh yeah. Dribble, pass, and skill move right into my defenders but somehow keep the ball. So much stupidity.

    Glad it’s not just be who gets this, and the fergie time added on is alsways laughable. Says 2 or 3 mins always adds an extra 2 if not more but blows when I’m on a attack

    There's always been gameplay manipulation in fut, let's be real, but this year it's just unreal.
    I lost more than 300 rivals points yesterday, nothing was working, while facing terrible opponents most of the time who have no clue about football.
    My hands still hurt from forcing on my gamepad to complete easy passes or player switching.
    Just feels like you have to play like a thumbless braindead monkey to succeed in this bs game.

    If your losing against opponents who have no clue about football... I question that you no doubt shouldn't have won 🤭

    @DutyHarry is right.

    The best way to succeed on this garbage is to have no football knowledge.

    I help coach a decent standard youth team, and trust me if I coached them to shoot near post or when getting to the byline chip the ball slightly in the air(double tap pass) instead of keeping it on the deck I wouldn't be coaching them for much longer!

    They just play by the meta, which is not football.

    LOL at people acting as though the game isn't to blame in many cases. The game is AWFUL.

    I play Rocket League as well. I'm a Platinum player every day of the week. I can compete with Diamond players, and I dominate Gold players. I've never once felt that the game was "helping" a lower rated opponent to beat me. Sure, there are unfortunate bounces from time to time, but they always occur in a way that is just part of the game.

    FIFA is completely different. The things that happen in FIFA often make no sense whatsoever, and are so obviously favoring a specific player, that it's nearly undeniable.

    Scripted games.

    Defending on the wings and watch as my CB’s just let the ball handler just walk right past them for easy goals. Even when I have 93+ CB’s.......
